Kentucky paper prints picture of John Calipari as crying baby

The Courier-Journal of Louisville put an illustration of Kentucky head coach John Calipari as a crying baby on the front of its sports section on Friday morning, and some readers are not happy about it, and neither is one of the paper's writers.

The gist of the story was about Calipari's reaction to the recent controversy over coach Mike Krzyzewski use of Team USA as a recruiting tool. Fair topic or not, the paper's UK beat writer, Kyle Tucker, jumped on Twitter to apologize to fans, who do not care to see the coach disparaged in that manner.

@KyleTucker_CJ I was literally in the middle of canceling my subscription when I saw your tweet. I'll give it a day-see how I feel tom.
